I stitched up the Shepherd's Bush Fob: America over the past few weeks. I finally completed it tonight, it is cute :) It's pretty big to be a Fob I think though, but it'll be a good ornament for my Christmas tree for sure. I even made the cording, a first for me... it wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be.
Also, I finished a tablerunner for a gift, I'm saving it for Christmas though :) It is made from a charm pack (5" squares), it's a Moda line of fabric, I though it was cute.
So, that is all for now, there were some really rough times in our family over the past week, and so I have been tired and stressed out. My mother in law had a heart attack, and it was really hard on her, she had to have open heart surgery. We were scared of losing her... I am glad to say things are getting better now. Just count your blessings, every single day.

I hope the best for your mother in law as she recovers.
Your stitching is so pretty, such a cute design. It is nice to have stitching and sewing to keep us occupied. I think it helps when we are stressed.

Did you husband bring you some cross stitch magazines from France?
Great finishes ... hope that everyone is doing better. Good to hear that your MIL is doing alright ... that's tough.
You look so cute in that picture. I tried you lj page today and it didn't work. Not sure if it's my computer or if you're not there anymore.
So glad to hear Mark's mom is getting better. She's been in my prayers.

I have been so tempted to start up the Shores of Hawk Run Hollow...so far I've been good.
Can't wait to see how your progress goes.

Great pic of you, your friend and the kids! Looks like you all had a great time. Anacortes is such a sweet little town. :)

Glad to hear that your MIL is doing much better.
I love Shores too and bought it just recently.
Anacortes looks so nice. Glad you had a nice visit with your GF.
The FOB is lovely!!! I didn't know there was a cross stitch shop in Anacortes! I have been to the quilt shops several times on trips to Whidbey Island (It is about an hour south of us)
I love the picture of you. You are so pretty!
I am glad you were able to see a friend. I am sad about the MIL situation. I sure hope she'll recover.
